Anxiety Counselling in Droitwich
On meeting, we will discuss your hopes / fears, and set goals as appropriate.
Both in and out of sessions, I encourage self-care and self-compassion. Having diagnoses of both Autism and ADHD, I focus on neurodivergence and how it can impact wellbeing and self-esteem.
I also work with adult daughters who have destabilising or unhealthy relationships with their mothers... moving toward greater self-respect and autonomy here is vital for your own growth. We will agree on "homework" tasks; utilising boundary-setting, CBT and NLP for optimal outcomes.
If you are committed to deepening self-understanding, contact me to talk about how we might work together towards your better, bolder, more liberated future.

I have experience in working with clients presenting with anxiety, panic disorder, depression, loss and bereavement issues, trauma and emotional dysregulation.
I believe I have had an unusual but a very fortunate life. My parents worked abroad and I grew up in India and Australia before being sent to boarding school at age 7. This experience taught me a lot about life, being independent and resilient. Despite my struggles with dyslexia and ADHD, I survived, and became a PE teacher, working in state and independent secondary schools before moving into Special Education. In all these positions I also held senior pastoral roles. My background has shown me the importance of building trust, encouraging open honest, communication, and creating, a safe, non-judgemental environment for clients.

Anxiety Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
